Smile Sessions - Episode 7 [Season Finale] - Ndlulamthi

Ndlulamthi is one of the motive forces of the Hip Hop scene around Cape Town (equally and openly not mesmerized by leaving the city to do music elsewhere). He has been doing music and performing since the early to mid-2000s. Releasing his first body of work in 2012; Is’bhilivane (Love Letter). The album featured some of his greatest works like Amandla Isandi, Imbawula, Isqhamo and Loving You to mention a few. The album is available for purchase on request.
He has since been seen performing some of his music in places like Makukhanye Arts Room, The Barn, Rands Cape Town and Zolani Centre.
2018 sought him releasing his second album: Hard Livings. The album was launched on the 25th of August 2018 at Zolani Center. It was produced by our local greats which include Last (from Inkanyamba), Simmz, and his long time producer, FiveSix. The album was engineered and mastered by our very own MsaiBeats. The body of work featured smash hits like Abahlali, Diary, Gun Dubula and Usengu Tatam to mention a few. The album is readily available for streaming and purchase from iTunes, Spotify and on request.
His music sounds not foreign. He can spit a fire bar to vocalizing a semitone and continuing with the raps like nothing happened.
Tracklist:
1. Andivoti ft FiveSix
2. Gun Dubula
3. Abahlali
4. Late Bels Ngomgqibelo
5. Diary
6. Usengu Tatam

South African 2pac 🔥

[@ntsikelelomadikane6649]

Nope he is lyrically better than 2 pac. He is the south african version of Immortal technique. Revolutionist amd verbalist. Lyricst MC

[@lihleskeyilihlesikeyi5861]

[@siyasangangaleka2241]

It is his undying consuming love for abaNtu abaNtsundu that fuels the pen of his lyrics. Syaqubuda NdluNdluNdlu.

[@fiksylicious]

It is 2020, and there is a new Prophet In Da City. Ndlulamthi is head and shoulders above the rest.

[@BongMaster213]

[@axesibuku2292]

I feel you Son. So relatable, we need more music that represents our lives.

[@indiphilleMackky]

"Uqhelile ubetwa nguTitshala zinto zesiqhelo" that's a double entendre 😭🔥🔥

[@MzoliSteve]

Thanks for the double entendre. Nice phrase.

[@chumamtabiso2548]

Can u explain my guy, the line flew over my head

[@dark_xsa]

As in; she’s used to being beaten by the teacher (corporal punishment) and that she’s used to being chowed by the teacher (ukubetha is a slang term used for sleeping with someone, the literal meaning of ukubethwa is being beaten), hopefully that provides some clarification 😅

The best live session I've seen here in SA

[@sadton7508]

each and every song ka Ndlulamthi consists of facts only ifeel like he is jesus he has experienced it all.i relate kwingoma zakhe zonke worse le "ANDIVOTI" When he talks about giving away your power to someone unknowingly.to uplift the person from lower grade to a high standard.ekgqibelen awzozuza nothing wea coz youre not appreciated only your power"vote" is appreciated.

[@malintipika4064]

Yeyona hip hop le melba siyayimamela cz inefundiso.....Much love Noble Son of the Soil

[@buhlobospeelman5576]

My body is in goosebumps mode and nothing has changed its even getting worse than we are asked "Why we are living the township economy?" its no longer safe or productive but a circle of poverty and the fight of power ..... Thank you Ntangam for being the guy who carries the burden of being the carrier of this heavy burden in lyricism that youngings have lost and forgotten that Spaza is the space where we could be best narrative and storytell our stories

[@sihlekhalipha3986]
